We are a deeply committed couple in our 30's, and the parents of five precious children on a radical journey to get out of debt, build our faith, our family and our home on 11 1/2 acres of land in the hills of beautiful, Southwest Virginia. Our desire is to use our lives and our resources to encourage others. Sometimes the journey is incredible, sometimes it seems impossible. Here you can read about both because such is life...

Valentines day pictures

We had a really fun Valentines Day! You already read in the previous post the things we did. I wish I had gotten pictures of the scavenger hunt, that was a hit with Daddy and the kids! Several people asked me if I got my date after reading the Valentine post. Yes I did! It was wonderful. My Valentine arranged to take me to the Indian restaurant in Blacksburg and it was lit up by candlelight with absolutely no wait to sit down! It could not have been more perfect. I did not even have to call the babysitter:-) We left there and he asked me if I wanted to go get my all time favorite food, Ice cream. If you know me at all you know how much I LOVE ice cream. Thankyou Sweetheart for such a wonderful evening! Its amazing when you have small children how much more you appreciate and get excited about going out on a date with your husband!

My Valentine with his morning look!

The heart pancakes, they were soo good!

The kids thought squirting whipped cream on their pancakes and putting strawberries on top was the greatest

We always tell our kids that they can date when they are married, not before! We tend more toward courtship so it makes sense. So we go on dates often whenever possible. With bigger kids we want them to know we love to spend time together and romance is still there.
